Audio-Technica - The Farm AV

The Lawsuit-Clear, One

Did you know Audio-Technica has a commercial AV division? Yes, they’re known for creating the first truly affordable high-quality phono cartridge, but they’ve come a long way since 1962. Over the decades they’ve expanded the famous high-quality consumer products into the professional market. They now have a line of professional microphones, headphones, wired and wireless systems, and electronic products designed and manufactured for commercial environments.

At The Farm we’re most excited about the new ceiling array microphone – the ATND1061. There are a lot of beamforming ceiling mic arrays. So, why the ATND1061 Ceiling Mic Array?

Why we like this product/technology

The audio quality is and always will be highly respected.

If they’re good enough for the GRAMMY® Awards and the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremonies, they’re good enough for a conference space, training facility or classroom.
The physical footprint is small.

It offers a low-profile form factor – 8.98” x 8.98” x 1.19” – roughly the size of a wireless access point.
Its industrial design is versatile.

Unlike other ceiling mic arrays on the market, it’s not limited to 2x2 drop-ceiling tiled spaces. Modern construction includes exposed, suspended and acoustical ceilings just to name a few.
Mount it in, on or down.

Slap that baby inside the ceiling tile, attach it to a solid wall or drop it from an open ceiling. Three mounting options include flush mount with plastic housing, surface mount and VESA pole mount. All hardware is included.
Six individual output channels.

These can collectively be configured with up to 32 user-defined microphone pickup zones. Plus, exclusion zones can be set to avoid sources of unwanted noise.
Software = simple zone configuration.

User-friendly Digital Microphone Manager software easily configures single or multiple microphone settings.
Exclusion zones can be set in the software.
